SPOOKY HALLOWEEN EDITION: MONDAY, OCT. 31, 2011 >>>

1. It's not every year that the Tacoma Cult Movie Club and the spookiest of all days, Halloween, intersect. But this year we just happen to be lucky! Tonight at the Acme Grub Cage join the Cult Movie Club in all its glory as classic horror films are screened, a night no doubt filled with gems of cinema culled by the Rev. Colin. Admission is free and the fun starts at 5 p.m. Expect raffle prizes and a potluck.

2. It's "Dia De Los Muertos Part 2" at El Perron on Tacoma's East Side tonight. Catch performances by folks and artists you've been hearing about on almost a weekly basis in Volcano's hip-hop correspondent Josh Rizeberg's column, including Illizm, J.Money, Cam & Mae, Blue Nose Music, Lost Soul The Emo-Kat, Yak Nasty and AR Mastermind. The party gets cracking at 10:30 p.m. and it'll cost you $5 at the door (or $3 if you're in costume).

3. Get spooky looking back at this year's Weekly Volcano Halloween Issue. Find all sorts of creepy stories as well as plenty of info for the big night.

4. Drop in on a special Halloween night of blues at The Swiss in downtown Tacoma tonight.

5. Go trick or treating at Freighthouse Square.
